Aleš Chvalovský (born 29 May 1979) is a Czech goalkeeper who played more than 150 matches in the Gambrinus liga.

Career

Aleš Chvalovský played in his youth for Chmel Blšany, Dukla Prague, SK Rakovník, Slavia Praha, Liverpool F.C., Marine F.C. and again for Chmel Blšany. In the 1998–99 season he was used for the first time in the professional team and played 15 times. In the following season he was the undisputed first team goalkeeper. He was signed in 2000 by VfB Stuttgart but played only 13 times in the amateur team. After only half a year Chvalovský returned in January 2001 back to Blšany where he was again the first goalkeeper. In 2003 there seemed to be a possible transfer to the French side FC Rouen which finally failed.

In 2005, Chvalovský was signed by the Cypriot club Apollon Limassol. During his first year in Cyprus he had a great season; his team won the championship unbeaten in Cyprus and he was voted player of the year in Cyprus for the 2005–06 season.

Personal

Chvalovský is the son of the president of many years of the Football Association of the Czech Republic František Chvalovský, who likewise played as a goalkeeper in Blšany.

Honours

Chvalovský in 2000 became European runner-up with the Czech Republic U-21 national football team in Slovakia and also played at the 2000 Olympic Games.
